The moral argument begins with the fact that all people recognize some moral code (that some things are right, and some things are wrong). Every time we argue over right and wrong, we appeal to a higher law that we assume everyone is aware of, holds to, and is not free to arbitrarily change. Right and wrong imply a higher standard or law, and law requires a lawgiver. Because the Moral Law transcends humanity, this universal law requires a universal lawgiver. This, it is argued, is God.

In support of the moral argument, we see that even the most remote tribes who have been cut off from the rest of civilization observe a moral code similar to everyone else's. Although differences certainly exist in civil matters, virtues like bravery and loyalty and vices like greed and cowardice are universal. If man were responsible for that code, it would differ as much as every other thing that man has invented. Further, it is not simply a record of what mankind does—rarely do people ever live up to their own moral code. Where, then, do we get these ideas of what should be done? Romans 2:14-15 says that the moral law (or conscience) comes from an ultimate lawgiver above man. If this is true, then we would expect to find exactly what we have observed. This lawgiver is God.

To put it negatively, atheism provides no basis for morality, no hope, and no meaning for life. While this does not disprove atheism by itself, if the logical outworking of a belief system fails to account for what we instinctively know to be true, it ought to be discarded. Without God there would be no objective basis for morality, no life, and no reason to live it. Yet all these things do exist, and so does God. Thus, the moral argument for the existence of God.

GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- Israeli military vehicles entered dozens of meters into the northern besieged Gaza Strip, on Monday.
A Ma'an reporter said that four large D-9 Israeli military bulldozers entered dozens of meters into Palestinian lands, north of Beit Hanoun town, and began to raze the lands as drones flew overhead.
No injuries were reported from the incident.
Israeli military incursions inside the besieged Gaza Strip and near the "buffer zone," which lies on both land and sea sides of Gaza, have long been a near-daily occurrence.
The Israeli army also regularly detains and opens fire on unarmed Palestinian fishermen, shepherds, and farmers along the border areas if they approach the buffer zone, as the authorities have not made clear the precise area of the designated zone.
The practice has in effect destroyed much of the agricultural and fishing sector of the blockaded coastal enclave, which has been under an Israeli air, land and sea blockade for nearly 12 years.

Boym. בוים is Yiddish for ‘tree’. In German, בוים is (der) ‘Baum’. In Hebrew, עֵץ (‘etz’) is ‘tree’. I took the background image above on a magical Greek island a few weeks ago. ‘Tu BiShvat’, the Jewish ‘New Year of the Trees’ started tonight (21 January 2019) and will continue until sunset tomorrow. My Yiddish-English dictionary gives חמישה־עשׂר (‘khamisho’ser’) as the Yiddish for ‘Tu BiShvat’, but I haven’t come across that term before. It is a minor holiday. The festival marks the time of year when the earliest-blooming trees in the land of Israel emerge from their winter hibernation and start the fruit bearing cycle. Therefore, it is customary to eat fruits associated with the bounty of the land, for example, grapes, figs, pomegranates and dates. Of course, historically, for Yiddish speakers and their descendants in the colder regions of Austria-Hungary, these fruits were not readily available during the winter (nor during the summer for that matter), but at the very least raisins were available. These could be added to baked dishes, mixed with dried slices of apple or enjoyed on their own. Yiddish speakers and their descendants would have had to wait a little while longer for the deciduous trees around them to start showing signs of life again in the long, dark, bleak winters of Central and East Central Europe, but surely enough spring (‘פֿרילינג') (‘friling’) would return! 😘 #yiddish#yiddishreloaded

Since its founding in 1993, the Council for American Islamic Relations (#CAIR ) has presented itself publicly as a benign Muslim American “civil rights organization.” From that time to this, however, the United States government has known that CAIR actually is an entity founded by the Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestinian franchise: Hamas, a group officially designated since 1994 as a terrorist organization.
Evidence of CAIR’s true character as a U.S.-based instrument for political warfare and fundraising for Hamas – and the federal government’s certain knowledge of the truth – did not come to light until the largest terrorism financing trial in the nation’s history: the 2007-2008 Holy Land Foundation prosecution. In the course of that trial, FBI Agent Laura Burns testified about, and helped explain, the transcripts of wiretap surveillance conducted in the course of two planning sessions leading up to the organizational meeting of CAIR held in Philadelphia in October 1993 and during the meeting itself. Specifically, she presented proof that CAIR’s mission was to assist “Sister Samah,” its founders’ hardly opaque code-name for Hamas, as the prospect of its terror designation loomed.

Last week, another firefight broke out over migration from Islamic countries to the U.S. southern border. This one was over President Trump's rather casual Twitter observation that, sort of interestingly, a media report said prayer rugs were found on the Mexico-New Mexico border. He obviously saw this report as a small, handy reminder of his mantra that border security is also national security.
The president's opponents lost their minds. Many of them saw the thing about prayer rugs as "trace evidence" of an as-yet-unproven suspected phenomenon or presence, like when hunters find the tracks of prey they hadn't previously known inhabited the area.
This was a silly, needless discussion that proves only one thing: the extent to which the American people, the media, and elected leaders remain ignorant about migration from Islamic countries despite overwhelming, prevalent, documented evidence to the contrary that has been in the public realm for at least a dozen years.
But still, for reasons unknowable, it just won't permeate.

Had the day off so I figured I would branch out and try an Israeli Kubaneh recipe I found on @kingarthurflour. 11/10 would recommend. This is my second Israeli recipe and both used a lot of butter.... but this southerner isn’t complaining about that 😏

The Torah of G-D is exactly the same way. That is why it could ONLY Book of G-D because it only has one version, all 304,805 letters in Hebrew, which remained the same from when it was given to Moses by G-D for over 3,300+ years. Every other religion has multiple versions, man-made, contains mistakes, and completely contradicts the Word of G-D. Plus, modern technology was able to decipher hidden codes within the Torah by using a technique called Equal-Distant Letter Sequencing [ELS]. IF there is even one extra letter, or one fewer, all of the codes would fall apart. Simple logic.

The Torah codes – Deuteronomy 4:27-28 – identified Christianity and Islam as false religions of “wood and stone.” The hidden codes translate to Yeshu and Mecca in these verses that speaks about idol worshipping. Is it random? No other place in the Torah did these names show up – but only in the ones corresponding to idolatry. The codes also identified major events, people, natural disasters, secrets of the animals, cycles of the moon, number of the stars in the galaxy, etc. No human can predict the future – only the Creator could. Facts and proofs defeats beliefs and opinions. A religion that requires a person to only "believe” and not ask questions is surely a false one. The real religion has all the answers. ✡️

The proof is before your eyes. Christianity has over 40,000+ denominations due to confusion and disagreements. Islam has many different sects that caused families to kill each other. The problem is – when you learn and live by falsehood, you will never reach the Truth. Not even in a million years. Simple logic – you can learn false information forever and the best you can ever become is an expert in false information. Check your understanding about Who is the true G-D and what the purpose of life is. More information. ⬇️

Well, Welcome 2019! “Currently, 1 million Uyghur people and other Muslim minorities are held in Chinese detention camps.”
- “Mosques are being destroyed.”
- “Praying and other religious practices are forbidden in the Chinese occupied region East Turkestan.”
This is all happening in 2019! World is silent, Muslims are silent as usual. Stop the cultural genocide! Stop the religious persecution.
P.S. Do not identify this so called Communist Chinese Government as “communist”. The measures that they have taken do not correspond to the communist/socialist ideology.
